Monday 9 Apr Blackshear report
I wasn't too sure how the fishing would be with the cold weather we have had the past few days. Got up to the lake at 2pm. Started fishing under Smoake bidge and from the first cast the crappie were biting. I caught around 60 by 7 pm and kept 30. Farted around fishing for bream under the lights and bass until midnight, then caught another 23 and I was done by 2am. The fish after midnight were impressive in size. About 15 were around a pound each. The day fishing was ridiculous though. I had a blast. Another interesting thing I got to witness as a bystander...or byfloater. Under the bridge there were thousands of bream suspended within 3 feet of the surface. They were everywhere. Big to small. I tried to toss small jigs at them, but they wouldn't even glance at it. So watched them for awhile and found that they would open their mouths and suck something in every 30 seconds or so. I guess they were feeding on some sort of hatched larva, too small for me to see. Now for the exciting part. For the next four hours I watched as 3 pound and up largemouth and hybrid took turns slicing and dicing these bream up. I saw some nice bass. I saw one that had to have been 7 or 8 pounds. By the way the water was very clear. I couldn't get the bass to hit any crankbaits or anything. They were keyed in on those bream. It was another beautiful night and I'm glad I gave Blackshear one more shot. I don't have a water temp sensor, but the water has definitely cooled off.
